Sensing the murderous intent that suddenly rose from Gu Yuan, the man suddenly felt a chill on his body and quickly begged for mercy, "Sir, please don't kill me. I can lead you there, find the way for you, and provide you with relevant information. Please don't kill me. There is still a little benefit in keeping me. If you ask me to kill you, you will probably get lost in Qingliang Mountain. The situation in Qingliang Mountain is quite complicated. If there is no one to lead the way for you, you will probably get lost in Qingliang Mountain.
Moreover, our people have laid various traps in Qingliang Mountain. If you are not careful, you may fall into a trap, which will definitely alarm our people.
Furthermore, if they knew that all of our people were here right now, they would definitely rush over immediately, and then you, my lord, would be in great trouble."
Gu Yan sneered and asked, "If I suffer, then wouldn't it be better for you? Isn't this what you want?"
The man replied tremblingly, "You are joking, sir. You are so powerful. I would never dare to have such thoughts. I just have a question. I wonder what you want from us, sir?"
Gu Yuan looked at the man with amusement and asked, "Don't you know why I'm here? Aren't my intentions obvious enough? You horse thieves have committed so many evil things. Could it be that I'm here to celebrate your leader's birthday?"
A trace of fear flashed in the man's eyes, and he quickly begged for mercy, "Sir, I have only just joined this group of bandits. In fact, I was forced to do so. Our village has often been attacked by bandits in the past. Moreover, many young girls in our village have also been raped by them. All the food in the village, even some chickens, ducks and other poultry, have been plundered by them. We don't even have enough to eat."
If I didn't join them they would kill me, so I was forced to join their team. However, from the time I joined their team until now, I have never been on a mission, because it has only been half a month since I joined.
Our leader didn't allow me to go on any missions, so even though I joined the bandits, I didn't do anything harmful to the world. Moreover, I was often given food by the young girls I robbed.
"I truly dare not do anything that is against the will of Heaven. Please forgive me, sir. I am willing to lead the way for you and help you eliminate those bandits to prevent them from committing further evil and harming the villagers in the nearby villages. I have also suffered greatly from their abuse. Big Eyes, please believe me. If I am false, I am willing to be struck by lightning and sent to the eighteen levels of hell, where I will never be reborn!"
Seeing the man's sincere expression of emotion, Gu Yuan couldn't help but believe him. However, it was impossible to trust him so easily in this place. Whether he was a real bandit or was forced to join the bandits, he was still a bandit after all.
As the saying goes, people's hearts are hidden, Gu Yuan didn't know whether he was telling the truth or not, and it was impossible for Gu Yuan to know his true experience.
So it is normal that Gu Yuan does not believe it. If Gu Yuan believed him so easily, he would be a real fool.
He sneered and said, "I don't care about you now. Why did you join the bandits? Or maybe you were a bandit and did something evil. I don't care about these things. I only know that you are now part of the bandits. If you want to survive, you must listen to me and follow my command. Do whatever I tell you to do. If I tell you to lead the way, you must lead the way honestly.
Otherwise, you will never be able to escape from my hands."
The man nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will do whatever you ask me to do. If you ask me to show you the way, I will. If you need me to, I can take you to where our large army is operating right now. Please be careful and help me get rid of those hateful horse thieves. I hate those horse thieves so much. If you don't come today, I might be forced to go out on a mission in two or three days to harm my fellow villagers and the nearby villagers. I don't want that. Please make sure to get rid of them."
As he said that, the man actually knelt down in front of Gu Yuan, and kowtowed to Gu Yuan several times while enduring the severe pain in his legs.
Gu Yuan raised an eyebrow. He really didn't know whether this guy was acting real or fake, but Gu Yuan couldn't tell. He was real. Even so, Gu Yuan still chose to treat him as a horse thief.
No matter how he expressed his true feelings, Gu Yuan would never believe him easily.
However, it doesn't matter. After all, Gu Yuan came here to kill the horse thieves. It doesn't matter whether he is trustworthy or not. As long as this guy can provide me with the most authentic information, there is nothing to worry about.
The fear is that this guy's disguise is too good, causing Gu Yuan to easily believe him. And then believe the false information he provides, putting himself in a passive situation. By then, Gu Yuan will really regret it.
So Gu Yuan just kicked him to make him stand up. The man endured the severe pain and looked at his leg which was still bleeding. Gu Yan took out a pill from the ring and stuffed it into his mouth.
As the pill entered his mouth, the wound on the man's leg gradually scabbed over in an instant.
The man looked at the changes in his wound, looked at Gu Yuan in surprise and said, "Sir, what is this thing?"
Gu Yuan replied calmly: "Pills."
The man replied, "So this is the elixir? The effect of the elixir is so abnormal that it can form scabs in an instant. It seems that the master is a person of extraordinary status to be able to produce the elixir. It seems that the master's strength must be very strong. If so, I feel relieved. The master will definitely be able to get rid of the horse thieves. As long as the anesthetic can be eliminated, the surrounding villages will definitely be peaceful for many years. In this way, the surrounding villagers will no longer have to suffer from the harm of horses."
Gu Yuan said, "Alright. Your wound has healed and it shouldn't affect your walking. Come on, walk ahead of me and lead me to where your leader is."
The man nodded excitedly, no longer afraid of Gu Yuan, and walked directly in front.
Gu Yuan looked at him, locking his energy on him at all times. Only in this way, if this guy dared to make the slightest movement, Gu Yuan would definitely ensure that he would die instantly and would never let him go easily.
The man walked obediently in front, leading the way for Gu Yuan and introducing the surrounding situation to him.
